If you are still a teenager or in your early twenties, I am sure you have heard the statement "You're to young to be in love."
Well I am here to say that the people who are telling you that are wrong. There is no age requirement or certain life experience needed to be able to fall in love, it just happens.
Falling in love when you are young, is not a bad thing whatsoever. If anything, falling in love at a young age is beneficial. I say that it is beneficial because it either benefits you in one of two ways. You either stay with that person who you have fallen in love with or you experience you first heart break. Yes, getting your heart broken can be beneficial. If it wasn't meant to be, it wasn't mean to be.
God is on your side though a heartbreak whether you realize it or not. That is what most people tend to forget about during a heartbreak. You are never alone after a heartbreak even when it feels like you are. After a heartbreak you will know what you want and what you expect out of your partner in the future. It will help you grow as a person. Now, if things work out with the person you fell in love with that is the most magical thing of all.
From experience, I fell in love at 14 years old. Today, I am 19 years old still in love with the same guy. What most young people do not understand is love does not come easy. It takes time and effort. You have to dedicate yourself to that person. Whenever you fall in love at a young age, you get to experience more as a couple. You grow up together and you share wonderful memories together.
The key to falling in love at a young age and having it work out is to have God in your relationship. People in my generation forget that God is the most important part of a relationship. God is our Savior and Protector, if we put our most important relationships in His hands they will become successful relationships.
Also, another piece of advice is to never, and I repeat never, lose yourself. Never lose who you are as a person and lose all your values. If you do fall in love when you're young, don't let anyone tear you down about it. Do not let people tell you "You're to young, you don't know what love is about" or "You need to experience college before finding love." They do not understand you or your relationship.
In my opinion, if you fall in love at a young age you are one of the lucky one. You are one of the lucky ones because what you have is what every one in the world is searching for. Everyone in this world is searching for love one way or another.
Appreciate falling love at a young age and cherish every second of it. Falling in love as a teenager or person in your 20s is not bad, but simply beautiful.
